Also, Linux support still sucks, especially for Wayland. Not only does it flicker a lot, it’s just a lot slower than it should be. At that point the graphics are the same level as CS:GO, with shadows but FSR at Performance and lowest settings, but half the FPS. Increasing MSAA from 2x to 4x causes a literally 2 seconds freeze when scoping in, among other performance problems. At this point it, and probably Source 2 in general, does not feel like a native, perfectly integrated program, like every Source, GoldSrc, 4AEngine etc. game is like, but like a crappy free chinese game you found on the deepest hell of steam run through Wine. I can’t take the game seriously. Even though it runs with 70 FPS at mid settings for me with a 1070, it still has a lot of sudden drops and other bugs.
